ITM scientists lead study published in Nature on carbon release from collapsing coastal permafrost in Arctic Siberia
In this week’s issue of Nature a study lead by researchers at Department of Applied Environmental Science (ITM), Stockholm University, shows that an ancient and large carbon pool held in a less-studied form of permafrost (“Yedoma”) is thaw-released along the ~7000 kilometer desolate coast of northernmost Siberian Arctic. The team found that the tens-of-thousands year old Yedoma carbon is rapidly converted to CO2 and that ten times more Yedoma carbon is released to the Arctic Ocean than previously estimated. Thermal collapse of the carbon-rich, permafrost-covered coasts may accelerate with warming of the Arctic climate.
